About HomeTube
HomeTube is a self-hosted web interface that downloads videos and playlists from more than 1,700 sites, powered by yt-dlp, and files them where Plex, Jellyfin, or Emby will find them. It selects the best available quality, removes sponsors and ads with built-in SponsorBlock support, and handles subtitles, chapters, clips, and playlist synchronization. Built Docker-first for homelabs and NAS boxes, it keeps downloads fully local with no telemetry.
